Need help finding replacement sights

I have a Traditions .32 Crockett rifle that has fixed 3/8" dovetailed sights front and rear. I want to replace them with adjustable rear sights or even ladder type sights and possibly a post or "hiviz" type front sight. I have looked on the websites of several sight makers - Williams, HiViz, Lyman. and can't seem to find any that have front and rear sight sets. In fact I haven't even found the rear sights that were appropriate. All the muzzleloading sites seem to have the same fixed sights as replacements. Does anybody have any other suggestions where I can look?

Brownell's and Midway are the two that come to mind right off. Midway is easy to get around their web site, Brownell's is a PITA. I just order their catalong, it's great and the five bucks it costs comes back to you on your first order.

Measure carefully, some are metric and what "looks" like a 3/8" dovetail could be metric.
